The object of the invention is to provide a polishing preparation orcomposition of matter'suitable for vehicle bodies, furniture and likesurfaces of wooden structures and others having a hard smoothfinish,-and particularly to provide a preparation having a cleansing andgrease cutting and neutra izing quality which will have the effect ofpolishing or producing a lustre by accretion and reinforcement oraddition rather than by attrition or reduction and which therefore iscumulative by repeated use in its beneficial effect upon the surfacetreated thereby, and serves to supplement previously varnished, coatedand polished surfaces to prolon the attractive appearance thereof and inefinitely defer the necessity for repainting and varnishing,particularly in reference to automobile bodies.

While minor variations in the relative Specification of Letters Patent.

proportions of the ingredients a'r'idwithin the range of equivalence inthe ingredients themselves may be resorted to, particularly when thedetermination as to equivalence is based upon the similarity of chemicaleffect and relation b reaction to other ingredients, the formu a whichhas been found in practice to be effective for the purpose and whichtherefore may be regarded as preferable in substantial particularsconsists of equal parts by volume of clear varnish, turpentine, rawlinseed oil, kerosene. gasoline.

These items should be thoroughly mixed or ground to ether to produce ahomogeneous composition which at normal or mean temperature issufficiently fluid to be applied either with a brush, sponge or clothafter the thorough cleansing of the surface by ordinary washing means.

Having thus descrlbed the invention, what I claim is The hereindescribedcomposition of matter for use as a polish which consists of varnish,turpentine, linseed oil, kerosene and gasoline.
